1 VCP stands for viable cells productivity; 2 CFU is an abbreviation of colony-forming units; 3 SD corresponds to a standard deviation; 4 ŁOCK is a designation of strains obtained from the Lodz Collection of Pure Cultures (Institute of Fermentation Technology and Microbiology, Lodz University of Technology; Lodz, Poland); 5 Various lowercase letters (a–c) represent significantly different mean values of VCP per one strain according to performed one-way ANOVA with post hoc Tukey’s test (p > 0.05).
